Collections framework: remove()
Posted by Steven Tolkin on April 24, 2000 at 5:41 PM
Exactly which element is affected by remove()?
The tutorial
http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/collections/interfaces/collection.html
says "The remove method removes from the underlying Collection the
last element that was returned by next." But this seems wrong. In
fact I may nave started at the end of the list and only said previous,
never next at all. Suppose I start at the beginning of the list [a, b,
c, d, e] and say next, next, next, previous, previous. The cursor is
between a and b. I believe that remove() will remove b. This is the
element that the cursor "moved over" most recently. Is this correct?
